Lightweight Quiet Wear-Resistant High Polish Precision HRC 66-70 Nylon Bearing Balls

For industries seeking reliable, non-metallic alternatives, our nylon balls for bearings provide a superior engineering solution. Manufactured from premium-grade polymers, these balls are designed to outperform traditional materials in specific, demanding environments where corrosion, noise, weight, or contamination are primary concerns.

Key Features:

• Corrosion & Chemical Resistance: Impervious to rust and highly resistant to a wide range of chemicals, oils, and solvents, making them perfect for wet, humid, or corrosive atmospheres where steel balls would rapidly degrade.

• Lightweight: Significantly lighter than steel (approximately 1/7th the density), reducing centrifugal force and inertial mass. This leads to lower energy consumption, faster start-stop cycles, and less wear in high-speed rotational applications.

• Quiet, Dry Operation: The inherent damping characteristics of nylon drastically reduce operational noise and vibration. These polymer bearing balls can often run effectively with minimal or no lubrication, eliminating contamination risks in clean environments like food and pharmaceutical production.
• Non-Magnetic & Electrically Insulating: They do not interfere with magnetic fields and will not conduct electricity, making them essential in electronic, medical (MRI), and specific laboratory equipment.
• Surface-Friendly: Softer than steel, nylon balls are ideal for use with softer shaft or housing materials (e.g., aluminum, bronze) as they minimize scoring and galling, protecting expensive components from damage.

Applications

• Food & Beverage Machinery: Conveyor bearings, bottling line guides, and mixer supports where lubrication is prohibited and washdowns are frequent.

• Consumer Goods: Office chairs, sliding mechanisms, and recreational equipment for quiet, smooth operation.

• Packaging Equipment: Low-noise bearings in cartoners, labelers, and wrappers.

• Chemical Processing: Pumps, valves, and agitators exposed to corrosive fluids.

• Material Handling: Roller conveyors, door rollers, and lightweight casters.

• Aquatic & Marine Applications: Equipment where saltwater corrosion is a constant issue.

• Electronics & Semiconductors: Cleanroom equipment and wafer handling tools requiring non-contaminating, static-control components.
